Has anyone here submitted applications mid-July after already being verified and had no problems getting secondaries, interviews, etc. from their dream schools?
 
I did that last cycle. Submitted to a state school in June to get verified, then submitted to the rest of my schools in July. Perfectly fine.

When specifically in July?

And, did you feel rushed completing secondaries?

In mid-July. No, I was not rushed. I finished all of my secondaries by mid-August, but I pre-wrote most of them in between getting verified and adding more schools. I had to write a few from scratch, but I mostly edited and revised.
 
Necro-bump: What do you need to have submitted to be verified? I get my MCAT score back on July 1 and then I need to schedule my committee interview and then they have to write their letter. I don't want to wait until August to be verified and couldn't find concrete answers if I could be verified before I have my committee letter in.

You do not need your committee letter in for your AMCAS to be verified.
 
Did that last cycle. My primaries were verified by mid-July (w/o Letters or MCAT). My score came in ~7/17, and I started submitting secondaries from end of July to mid-August. I didn't prewrite any secondaries, which was a big mistake.
